- Summary
-
Exploring the relationship between law and society, this classic edition of Common Law and Feudal Society brings a key legal history text back to life in a popular new series. The close links between the Scots and English law in the Middle Ages have long been recognised. This text assesses the relevance of traditional approaches to Scottish legal history, setting the development of medieval law within the context of a society in which private lordship, exercised through courts and other less formal methods of dispute settlement, played a key role alongside royal justice. Based on extensive research, this book examines the brieves of novel dissasine, mortancestry and right, and legal remedies for the recovery of land, as well as aspects of the early history of the Scottish legal profession and the origins of the Court of Session.

- Description
- Book — xii, 303 p. ; 24 cm.
- Summary
-
The close links between medieval Scots law and its English equivalent have long been recognized. Recently, however, the received views of legal development have been challenged by Professor S.F.C. Milsom. In this book Hector MacQueen assesses the relevance of the new theory to Scottish legal history. He sets the development of medieval law within the context of a society in which private lordship played a key role alongside royal justice. Based on extensive research, the book examines the brieves of novel dissasine, mortancestry and right, and legal remedies for the recovery of land, as well as certain aspects of the early history of the Scottish legal profession and the origins of the Court of Session.
